I had a lot of fun and talked with Prytanis about many things.

On my way back to the office, Mil gave me a hard look.
She seemed to be in a bit of a bad mood.
“There’s more Al…”
“No, there’s no increase.”
“I’m really glad that you introduced me to him, but how can you just leave me there?”
Oh no… I can’t help but scratch my head.
“Oh…I’m sorry. The conservation is just moving so fast, so…”
Mil sighed.
“Seriously, you… just be careful next time, okay? I’ll get angry if you don’t.”
“Of course, I’ll be careful. It’s just that it’s so natural for us to be next to each other all the time…”
""
Mil looked a little happy, but then she made a difficult face, like she was trying not to be deceived.
Then she pointed her finger at me.
“I’m not going to be fooled by that!”
I couldn’t help but feel bad.
I apologized honestly, and she didn’t seem to be that angry and forgave me easily.
I’ll follow up with her later.
If I’m not careful this time and do it again, it could cause a huge fire.
I’ve been hurt by that many times before my reincarnation…
It makes me feel blue when I remember it, so let’s not do it.
Although I did something a bit dumb… it was very beneficial to get a lot of information from Prytanis about the social structure of Dorius.
No matter how well we hit it off, we couldn’t just suddenly make Prytanis a representative.
That would have to wait until after the battle with Dorius is over…
I only introduced Prytanis at the representatives’ meeting.
After he left, we started to discuss what to do from now on.
I started with what I had heard from Prytanis.
“There seems to be a power struggle under the surface between Dorius, his eldest son Anaxandrides, and his second son Nikandros.”
The teacher looked a little surprised.
“A three-way struggle, that’s a bit surprising.”
Infighting often happens when the odds are stacked against you.
“Anaxandrides, who has the Prophet on his side, is planning to drag down the relatively pragmatic Dorius. This is a radical. Nikandros is on the side of Dorius. He thinks that if he can force Anaxandrides into disinheritance, he can become the successor. On the surface, he’s on the side of Dorius.”
“Will his second son betray him if the situation warrants it?”
“It seems so. Thanks to him, the other tribes are unable to select the right person to attack. It’s a dysfunctional situation.”
Charles folded his arms.
“If that’s the case… they won’t be able to move for a while. If they make compromising choices, they may end up failing. However, if they leave him out, there will be doubts about Dorius’ leadership ability… I wonder what will happen about that.”
""
“If the second son is an ordinary actor, it will be the second son. If he is a great actor, he will be discredited by both factions and drop out. In that case… it will be the first son. It seems that Dorius himself is losing his power to speak out. It would be the group with the authority that would have the power in such a situation.”
Charles chuckled.
“If you’re more concerned about who’s on your side than whether you win or lose… I’m afraid we’re in for a rough ride.”
The ill-natured grandma Magali also laughed.
“…… It’s not only that people turn away from defeat and failure when they are in danger. When they are in danger, they not only turn away from defeats and failures, but they also lose patience with those who benefit more than them when they succeed.”
That sounds strangely real.
“It remains to be seen… whether they will attack the beastmen or turn on us.”
The ill-natured grandma Magali looked amused.
“So… you think they’re going to attack us?”
How shameless… I’m sure you’ve been thinking about that possibility yourself.
If I hadn’t said it, you would have pointed it out…
“If we win even once, the other beastmen will hesitate. It will take less effort and produce more results than crushing 3-4 tribes individually. And that’s exactly what will follow… in terms of internal power struggles. That is, if you don’t consider the risks.”
The ill-natured grandma Magali snickered.
“I’m sure this level of reading is a breakfast to the boy. But you can’t be too careful all the time.”
The ill-natured grandma Magali has been able to afford to keep me entertained lately….
I’ll give you more work to do…
“Normal vigilance will suffice. I’ve already made most of the preparations.”
The ill-natured grandma Magali looked at me with interest.
“Oh, is this in connection with that thing you asked about earlier?”
“Yes, it is. If we can get it right, we won’t have to formally move the Knights from here.”
“The boy’s handling of enemies and allies is the complete opposite. There is no other lord in the world who is as gentle with his allies as you are. It’s all right when it’s small. But when it gets big what are you going to do about it?”
Only a few people knew about this plan.
To the rest of them, it sounds like a riddle.
“I’m hoping that by then you’ll have grown up and I’ll have less responsibility… I’m counting on that. Otherwise, I’m almost certain I’ll be ruined.”
This statement made them all very upset.
Oracio leaned forward.
“What the hell does that mean, my lord?”
I shrugged my shoulders.
“If the population increases tenfold and everyone didn’t grow, the decisions and responsibilities on me will increase tenfold or more. If that happens, my mind will almost certainly not be able to handle it. But that doesn’t mean I can cut corners. It’s in my nature.”
Abraham gave me a stern look.
“Can you be a little more specific? It’s not something I can pass off as a joke.”
I laughed lightly.
“I’ll leave that for you to figure out. I’ll leave it as your homework.”
Kiara looked like she wanted to say something, but she seemed to have a lot on her mind.
And it was Kiara who broke the silence that had gripped the group.
“In other words, brother is thinking seriously about each citizen… We have to be able to take care of them. If we don’t, brother will take it all on himself… is that correct?”
Her eyes were more serious than ever.
It’s not a joke, but the fact that I said it lightly… made it seem even more serious to Kiara.
But I dare not change the tone of my voice.
“That’s about right. You’re still growing properly. But you can’t stop just because you’ve grown more than before. You should also train your own people. If you do that, it’ll be fine.”
They all looked at each other.
The ill-natured grandma Magali smiled a muffled smile.
“If you’re not careful, you might think that you can just leave it to the kid and he’ll be fine… but the next trick will be even worse. He may be a demon or a demon king, but he’s not a god. You can’t rely on him too much, you know. It’s not easy to hand out blessings to believers.”
Don’t add anything unnecessary.
I cleared my throat and returned to the topic.
“Anyway, you should also think about training people. I know you’re only focusing on the most recent people right now, but…”
They all nodded with serious expressions.
After the meeting was over, I was tightly packed on both sides by Mll and Kiara.
Mil was staring at me with fierce eyes.
“Al… let’s talk about the way you said that.”
Kiara was also staring at me.
“I’ve got a lot to tell you about that statement, too, brother.”
Oh, this is a lecture course…
No, it was definitely not the right way to say, but…
Damn it… That ill-natured grandma Magali… Bringing up unnecessary topics…
I had a lot of fun and talked with Prytanis about many things.
